This loaf is such a nice twist on the more traditional orange cake. Blood oranges just make this a little more special and the syrupy glaze that gets drizzled over the top is (literally and figuratively) the icing on the cake!
1 ½ c flour 2 tsp baking powder 1 tsp sea salt
1 c organic cane sugar 1 c sour cream ½ c butter
½ c orange juice 2 tbl orange zest 3 tbl applesauce
1 tsp cinnamon ¼ tsp ginger 1 pinch allspice

In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, allspice and sea salt, set aside.
In a large bowl, combine sugar, sour cream, orange juice, and applesauce, mix until combined.
